Duff, I don't know how you do it...

The running thing. Haha.

 

I started Couch to 5K today. I ran outside and seriously thought my chest was going to explode! Kuddos to you! Maybe one day we will run together. I suck right now! 

Re: Duff, I don't know how you do it...

  • I think that you gave yourself an extra challenge by starting on a cold day  ;)

    I've heard that is a great program, good luck working towards your first 5k!

  • Boo!  Tell me when you're going to do these things and I'll come with you!  It's a great program...my friend is coming back from an injury and is using it to start back up again...she's run 2 marathons, so it's great for everyone - beginners and "experts" alike.  :)

    I was actually coming here to page you...a couple of our friends are seriously looking into building in your future development, so Mike and I drove through it today and we LOVED it!  I'm assuming it was the same one, there's not much going up there besides that one development, although it's kinda big.  We're going to see what it would take to do the necessary things to get our condo ready to sell.  We picked up a few things from one builder (Paul Allen) and we really liked what we saw.  Who knows...maybe we'll be neighbors some day.  :) 

    Damn you Nest for screwing up my siggy!

  • Yeah! That is so exciting! We are building from Paul Allen. On Azaleas road. It is a great neighborhood i think. And about 2 miles away they are going to be putting up the new RR Pres hospital and a mall. So it will be a booming area and great for resale! 
     
    Let me know when/if you ever wanna check out my lot/house or talk to one of the builders. I'll take you it. (Maybe he might add on something for bringing him a perspective buyer!) You know my number!
     
    As for the running, I totally walk faster than I jog I think! I drove the path the I ran yesterday and it was only 1.5 miles. Boy am I out of shape! But I wanted to do out side b/c they say if you are going to be running races/5k etc. you should train outside on that terrain as opposed to on the treadmill.
     
    Thoughts? Suggestions?
     
    I am due for my next work out tomorrow. I have to work though too. So I am not sure when I am going to do it. Or where. All I know is I am sore as heck right now! Hahaha. But its a start! 
  • Oh, I'd love to see your lot, regardless of what ends up happening.  We for sure need to replace the carpet in our condo and we need to put in a new door on our coat closet (and a door stop...there's a hole in the current door thanks to the lack of a door stop for the front door.  Grrrrr....) and I need to re-paint.  I don't think any of it is really huge.

    Yes, definitely run outside.  I totally understand the walking faster than you run - I swear, I STILL run slower than I walk!  1.5 miles for your first time is awesome though!  I think I did less than a mile my first time (ok, first several times)!  I'm not sure what time you're working, but we have a small group running/walking tomorrow night at 6.  My friend that I mentioned above who's doing C25K will be there too if you're interested in joining us. 

    Damn you Nest for screwing up my siggy!

  • Thanks for the invite Duff! I have to leave for work by 630. I work 7p to 730a. Maybe once I can run for more than a minute straight I will join you on a day off? 

    Check your email too!  

  • I got the email, and I changed mine, so I responded from the new one - just in case you didn't see it.  :)
